Never say there's only bad news reported by our media!!  This little pearl is something I've been waiting a long time for.  Hopefully it results in an arrest and imprisonment.

Mr. Stevens, 84, was indicted on seven counts of falsely reporting income. The charges are related to renovations on his home and to gifts he has received. They arise from an investigation that has been under way for more than a year, in connection with the senator’s relationship with a businessman who oversaw the home-remodeling project.

The indictment will surely reverberate through the November elections. Mr. Stevens, who has been in the Senate for 40 years, is up for re-election this year. Mark Begich, a popular Democratic mayor of Anchorage, hopes to supplant him.
Some background...

C&L's dirt on Tubes...






My obvious beef with him is that he's long been the biggest supporter of ending net neutrality.  In other words, this bumbling fool who has no idea what the Internet is or how to describe it even to a small child..want's the Internet to be like cable TV.  Imagine prepaying for restricted, ad-rich, very limited and likely agenda driven content...on the Internet.  Imagine paying $30 a month for 500 "channels" of content..content that only ad-supported sights could pay for that privilege of being listed!

May he be tried, convicted, and tossed in gen pop and raped for all those he's raped (you and I).

Isn't this the tool that fought for the $200+ Million Bridge to Nowhere?

How is this a surprise. Seemed like he was a great representative....for himself. And thats about it.

I heard about this on the radio. My calls for more rope have been heard. There is hope.

We need to have a two term rule.

These guys are above the law, most of the time.

Agreed.  We need term limits on all elected government officials.  They get too cozy after awhile and think they can't be removed, thus opening their souls to be corrupted by devils that now own Washington.

nothing feels good to me than to see a crooked politician get a taste of his own medicine.

The Republicans have really been taking a beating over the past 8 years.

Glad I ditched them.

Stevens is a douche.  It looks like Pete Domenici will be the most senior Republican senator soon.
